Question

In Visual Studio 2012, when right clicking a file in the solution explorer and clicking 'Open with...' the dialog pictured in the image below is shown:

Is there a way to use this exact dialog window via the EnvDTE namespace? For a Visual Studio Add-in I am developing I require this functionality and would like the experience to be as similar as possible to Visual Studio (as well as to avoid writing more code...)

Thanks :)

Was it helpful?

Solution

After a lot of experimenting, this seems to work:

IVsUIHierarchy uiHierarchy;
uint itemId;
IVsWindowFrame frame;
VsShellUtilities.OpenDocument(myServiceProvider, fullPath, VSConstants.LOGVIEWID_UserChooseView, out uiHierarchy, out itemId, out frame);
